on the site by using the three County Specific Obituary
selections in the Partitioned search engine at the bottom of the Current What's New Page? You can narrow

Words option.
You'll also find obituary and other newspaper clippings using Clippings

Reading a series
of obituaries from a single cemetery, as they are presented here, is like
reading the multi-generational history of a community. These people were the
local populace at a particular time. The people buried here knew each other,
were neighbors, relatives and school mates. They attended church together and
engaged in "trade" or business.

All people are listed in alphabetic order by surname at BIRTH. Women
identified by a married alias only and for whom a birth surname can not
be identified, are listed on the last page for the cemetery's obituaries.
Please send in typed obituaries for people buried in our local cemeteries. If
possible include name of newspaper and date. Send typed in your email or in
